I know how to create a short-cut in the start-up menu so that BOINC starts when windows boots...but my question is if their is a way to have BOINC startup minimized to the task-tray instead of maximized when windows boots. I am sorry if I am being picky.

Adding -min to the end of the target in your shortcut should do it.

Hi poolball,

You could also right-click on the BOINC program shortcut (Wherever you use it, maybe Startup folder, et al), select the Shortcut toggle and then select Minimized from the Run pull down menu, which usually has Normal Window as a default.
